At 28,000 square metres (300,000 sq ft), the plot is only just big enough to house the stadium, with room for expansion to the north and north west, and only sufficient room on the other sides to allow movement of spectators and access to the stands.

[1] The stadium can seat 18,000 people and was originally built in 1959 under the name of Estadio Municipal de Puerto La Cruz.

From 1956 through 1964, the facility served as the home for the Indios de Oriente and Estrellas Orientales clubs.

[1] Eventually, it was used as a multi-purpose stadium in 2006 and 2007 by hosting soccer games for the local team Deportivo Anzoátegui.

In 2010, after many talks and relocation threats, the government of Anzoátegui state started a renovation which included structural changes, a parking lot, brand new lighting kits, and artificial turf which gives realism by featuring dirt around the bases and the pitcher's mound, but dirt colored turf infield and base paths.
